Isaiah 64章

1

Isa 64:1-12.

本文を開く

简体中文

赛 64:1-12。

从抱怨转为祷告。

1. 愿你……裂天而降——为要施行报应,忽然降临于你百姓的仇敌

(诗 18:9;144:5; 哈 3:5, 6)。

倾泻——

(士 5:5; 弥 1:4)。

英語原文

Isa 64:1-12.

TRANSITION FROM COMPLAINT TO PRAYER.

1. rend . . . heavens--bursting forth to execute vengeance, suddenly descending on Thy people's foe

(Ps 18:9; 144:5; Hab 3:5, 6).

flow down--

(Jud 5:5; Mic 1:4).

简体中文

2. 愿你的烈怒如火吞噬你的仇敌。更确切为"如火烧干柴"一般

[GESENIUS]。

英語原文

2. Oh, that Thy wrath would consume Thy foes as the fire. Rather, "as the fire burneth the dry brushwood" [GESENIUS].

简体中文

3. 当——当从

赛 64:2

补入"如",作"如当"。

可畏的事——

(诗 65:5)。

我们不指望的——远超我们民族的预期,空前未有

(出 34:10; 诗 68:8)。

降临——指在西奈山上。

山岭流出——重复自

赛 64:1;

他们祈求神如今为以色列行从前所行的同样之事。GESENIUS不取此处的"流出"与

赛 64:1

的"流",而按另一希伯来文词根译作"震动……震动";然而"火"是熔化并使……流出,而非使之震动

(赛 64:2)。

英語原文

3. When--Supply from

Isa 64:2,

"As when."

terrible things--

(Ps 65:5).

we looked not for--far exceeding the expectation of any of our nation; unparalleled before

(Ex 34:10; Ps 68:8).

camest down--on Mount Sinai.

mountains flowed--Repeated from

Isa 64:1;

they pray God to do the very same things for Israel now as in former ages. GESENIUS, instead of "flowed" here, and "flow" in

Isa 64:1,

translates from a different Hebrew root, "quake . . . quaked"; but "fire" melts and causes to flow, rather than to quake

(Isa 64:2).

简体中文

4. 耳曾听见——保罗

(林前 2:9)

将此译作"人心也未曾想到";这是实质意义,有他默示的权威为证。人可以外在的耳听见,却只能借圣灵以"心""领悟"神作为的属灵意义——包括此处首要指论以色列的作为,以及保罗所指次要论福音的作为。

神啊……他所预备的——更确切为"眼未曾看见一位神,除了你以外,能行这样的事"。他们以神为以色列所行的已往奇事为据,求他如今介入拯救他的子民;但圣灵如保罗在默示下所示,进一步着眼于神在福音中的启示,其中充满肉耳未曾听过的奇妙悖论,非人的聪明所能理解,先知预言时也未能完全领悟或置信;即使基督已经显明,若非圣灵内在的教导也不能明白。这些部分属于已过与现在,部分属于将来;因此保罗以"预备"代替"行",尽管他的上下文表明三者都包括在内。他以"爱他"代替"等候他";敬虔的等候必出于爱,而非仅出于惧怕。

英語原文

4. perceived by the ear--Paul

(1Co 2:9)

has for this, "nor have entered into the heart of man"; the virtual sense, sanctioned by his inspired authority; men might hear with the outward ear, but they could only by the Spirit "perceive" with the "heart" the spiritual significancy of God's acts, both those in relation to Israel, primarily referred to here, and those relating to the Gospel secondarily, which Paul refers to.

O God . . . what he . . . prepared--rather, "nor hath eye seen a god beside thee who doeth such things." They refer to God's past marvellous acts in behalf of Israel as a plea for His now interposing for His people; but the Spirit, as Paul by inspiration shows, contemplated further God's revelation in the Gospel, which abounds in marvellous paradoxes never before heard of by carnal ear, not to be understood by mere human sagacity, and when foretold by the prophets not fully perceived or credited; and even after the manifestation of Christ not to be understood save through the inward teaching of the Holy Ghost. These are partly past and present, and partly future; therefore Paul substitutes "prepared" for "doeth," though his context shows he includes all three. For "waiteth" he has "love Him"; godly waiting on Him must flow from love, and not mere fear.

简体中文

5. 迎接——即你与他和睦,或与他立约(见

赛 47:3

注释)。

欢喜……行事——即欢喜甘愿地行事[GESENIUS]

(徒 10:35; 约 7:17)。

那些——你迎接"那些"人,与"他"——代表一类人——同位;"那些……的人"更详尽地描述其特征。

记念你……你的道路——

(赛 26:8)。

犯了罪——字面为"跌跤",承接"道路"的比喻。

在这些事上有恒久——这是恳求不要使神的烈怒恒久持续的祈求;不是在你的烈怒中有恒久

(赛 54:7, 8; 诗 30:5; 103:9),

而是在你的道路("那些")中,即对你子民守约施怜悯的道路中有恒久

(弥 7:18-20; 玛 3:6);

他们凭信心以他圣约永恒的恒久为据,推断"我们必蒙拯救"。神为他们"记念"了他的圣约

(诗 106:45),

虽然他们常常"不记念"他

(诗 78:42)。

CASTELLIO译作:"我们在其中('你的道路')犯罪已久,我们还能得救吗?"但他们祈求的目标正是得救,不太可能如此说。

英語原文

5. meetest--that is, Thou makest peace, or enterest into covenant with him (see on

Isa 47:3).

rejoiceth and worketh--that is, who with joyful willingness worketh [GESENIUS]

(Ac 10:35; Joh 7:17).

those--Thou meetest "those," in apposition to "him" who represents a class whose characteristics "those that," &c., more fully describes.

remember thee in thy ways--

(Isa 26:8).

sinned--literally, "tripped," carrying on the figure in "ways."

in those is continuance--a plea to deprecate the continuance of God's wrath; it is not in Thy wrath that there is continuance

(Isa 54:7, 8; Ps 30:5; 103:9),

but in Thy ways ("those"), namely, of covenant mercy to Thy people

(Mic 7:18-20; Mal 3:6);

on the strength of the everlasting continuance of His covenant they infer by faith, "we shall be saved." God "remembered" for them His covenant

(Ps 106:45),

though they often "remembered not" Him

(Ps 78:42).

CASTELLIO translates, "we have sinned for long in them ('thy ways'), and could we then be saved?" But they hardly would use such a plea when their very object was to be saved.

简体中文

6. 不洁之物——律法上不洁,如长大麻风者。这话对以色列同样真实:如今他们因不信并因神的审判,到处与圣徒的会众隔绝。

义——复数,"不洁"延伸到他们每一具体的作为,甚至连他们的祷告和赞美也是如此。这话对未重生者最好的行为亦同样真实

(腓 3:6-8; 多 1:15; 来 11:6)。

污秽的衣服——字面意为"经期的污秽布"

(利 15:33;20:18; 哀 1:17)。

枯干……叶子——

(诗 90:5, 6)。

英語原文

6. unclean thing--legally unclean, as a leper. True of Israel, everywhere now cut off by unbelief and by God's judgments from the congregation of the saints.

righteousness--plural, "uncleanness" extended to every particular act of theirs, even to their prayers and praises. True of the best doings of the unregenerate

(Php 3:6-8; Tit 1:15; Heb 11:6).

filthy rags--literally, a "menstruous rag"

(Le 15:33; 20:18; La 1:17).

fade . . . leaf--

(Ps 90:5, 6).

简体中文

7. 奋起——从属灵的沉睡中苏醒。

抓住——

(赛 27:5)。

英語原文

7. stirreth--rouseth himself from spiritual drowsiness.

take hold--

(Isa 27:5).

简体中文

8. 父——

(赛 63:16)。

泥……窑匠——

(赛 29:16; 45:9)。

无力自行塑造正确的他们,祈求神的主权旨意将他们塑造以至救恩,正如他起初造了他们,又是他们的「父」。

英語原文

8. father--

(Isa 63:16).

clay . . . potter--

(Isa 29:16; 45:9).

Unable to mould themselves aright, they beg the sovereign will of God to mould them unto salvation, even as He made them at the first, and is their "Father."

简体中文

9.

(诗 74:1, 2)。

我们……你的百姓——

(耶 14:9, 21)。

英語原文

9.

(Ps 74:1, 2).

we are . . . thy people--

(Jer 14:9, 21).

简体中文

10. 圣城——除了耶路撒冷以外,没有别的城被称为「圣城」

(赛 48:2; 52:1);

因此复数是指同一城耶路撒冷的上部与下部[VITRINGA];或全犹大都归神为圣,故其城邑也被视为「圣」[MAURER]。但平行句支持 VITRINGA。锡安与耶路撒冷(同一城)对应「圣城」。

英語原文

10. holy cities--No city but Jerusalem is called "the holy city"

(Isa 48:2; 52:1);

the plural, therefore, refers to the upper and the lower parts of the same city Jerusalem [VITRINGA]; or all Judea was holy to God, so its cities were deemed "holy" [MAURER]. But the parallelism favors VITRINGA. Zion and Jerusalem (the one city) answering to "holy cities."

简体中文

11. 房屋——圣殿。

华美——包含荣耀之意

(可 13:1; 徒 3:2)。

焚烧——

(诗 74:7; 哀 2:7; 代下 36:19)。

它在尼布甲尼撒下的毁灭预示了在提多下的毁灭。

美物——希伯来文「可喜悦之物」;我们的家、我们的城,以及其中一切可爱的关联。

英語原文

11. house--the temple.

beautiful--includes the idea of glorious

(Mr 13:1; Ac 3:2).

burned--

(Ps 74:7; La 2:7; 2Ch 36:19).

Its destruction under Nebuchadnezzar prefigured that under Titus.

pleasant things--Hebrew, "objects of desire"; our homes, our city, and all its dear associations.

简体中文

12. 虽有这些事——你尽管你的百姓遭遇这些灾祸,仍拒绝施援吗

(赛 42:14)?

英語原文

12. for these things--Wilt Thou, notwithstanding these calamities of Thy people, still refuse Thy aid

(Isa 42:14)?
